Trump said “We’re here and they’re not”, and that kind of summed it all up. The 1%. The true believers. The profiteers, snake oil sales people, those who want America to die and be replaced by autocracy and theocracy. The props who’d lost someone and were there to have a spotlight beamed on them to promote the myth that Trump gives a shit about them, and somehow by fiat the rest of the country that’s infected with the Republican fear virus. They were there in the super spreader COVID event to add to Supreme leader’s propaganda event at our White House that isn’t supposed to be used as a propaganda stage. The number of people in that audience were close to the number of Americans who have died from COVID19 because of this president’s sloth, incompetence and sadism in the four days of the RNC “Convention”.

Losing your supposed democracy, as flawed as it may be, to fascists who slink in by 70 thousand votes in three states is a hard lesson, right? The next four years will forever change the American ideal if Trump is re-elected. I want to hope that we’ve learned something.. Hope the awesome power of the government wielded by this fuck to steal the election can be beaten by what Americans take for granted on election day. There are more of us than the people sitting on our lawn praising the wannna be dictator, but they’ve already planned how they keep power and bend our country to the will of Trump.

Can we win this? I hope we can.
